This book was NOT for me. It’s obviously about a cult, but it goes way overboard with super graphic descriptions of sexual and physical abuse against women. I get that it’s supposed to be dark, but it felt like a lot just for shock value, and it really put me off. If someone asked, I’d say don’t bother —it’s not worth the discomfort.

So thought provoking, well written, dark and thrilling. The plot was so interesting, while also being very disturbing. The characters all had depth and were very well developed. There might have been some little aspects that didn't fully make sense to me, but I'm willing to let that slide because this book completely blew me away by how amazing it it.
